Abstract

We evaluated the rate and potential predictors of repeat pregnancy during 2 years of postpartum follow-up among women enrolled to a clinical trial that compared 2 initial antiretroviral regimens in pregnancy. These women had intensive follow-up during and after pregnancy including extensive contraceptive counseling and were specifically counseled to avoid subsequent pregnancies on study. We hypothesized that occurrence of repeat pregnancies might be predicted by specific demographic and/or clinical characteristics. By identifying these characteristics we hoped to target HIV-infected women most at risk for repeat pregnancy with more focused contraceptive counseling. (excerpt)
